I don’t recall Wy being involved. I think this is the strip
you’re talking about [x].
Australia did ‘research’ on Japanese people. This entails
watching a clip from Naruto – a joke, obviously.
The comic gag is that it’s attributed to French and English influence.
Sure! Before I get into a post strictly focusing on relations, I think it’s necessary to go over the types of relationships that we see in the series.
Guide coming up tonight!
Totally! That’s what I love about Hetalia.
The personifications can temporarily hate each other on a
personal level and yet be aligned due to politics.
Or, they can be political enemies and still view each other with
positive regard on a personal level.
Or, they can dislike each other on both a political and
personal level and yet still be allies.
Just to give an example of what you mentioned, we see this
with Austria, Russia, and France during the Seven Years’ War.

Thank you! It’s not awkward at all!
I think you’re talking about the lack of feedback? If so, trust me, you’re not alone. Many authors I’ve talked to have been discouraged by how many people read their stories, yet don’t follow/ favourite/ review/kudos.
An author isn’t entitled to positive feedback either. However, if you’ve been actively reading a story, at the bare minimum you should be doing one of the above.
This was really flattering, thank you – albeit a bit exaggerated 😉
I’m uploading the Spamano one-shot tonight!
Thank you!
I had to split the German brothers because there was too much information to fit into one post, Norway I can’t do because we don’t have insight into his childhood, and France I’m still working on, so Germany it is!
A post on the impact of Germany’s childhood coming up tonight!
How I look at it is that
it’s not my problem if people make blind judgments about the anime/manga
without fact-checking. What matters is that YOU and others in the fandom know
that Hetalia does anything but promote nazism, fascism, and political
corruption.
I’ve gotten a bit of
hate, but you’d be surprised by how much of it was fixed once I linked them to
a couple of my posts. You can’t argue against fact. There’s no room for
interpretation or opinion in the strips that have always been there, yet people
completely ignore.
I’ve said this before,
but if enough people get over the fact that Hetalia is ‘cringey’ – mostly fanon
anyway – and just enjoy it because you enjoy it, I can guarantee you that it
would spark more interest and bring in more people to the fandom. Then, they
can see for themselves how misconstrued their perception of the series was.
Back to hate,
personally, even though I don’t get much, I don’t care when I do. I just don’t
answer. I’m sorry that you feel that way, but my advice would again be trying
to divert your enjoyment of the series away from what other people think of it.
And, if you do decide to post, we’ll be there to support you.
In the prime of his empire, he’s depicted as this malicious
villain when in reality he’s like:
“I could totally crush you LOL, but nah, I’d rather go eat
some porridge.”
Spain, probably: “Is this guy for real?”
While I don’t have a theory on Turkey, I wouldn’t mind clarifying some misinterpretations of his character. I’ve also grossly portrayed him in the past, falling into the trope of depicting him as the villain. So cringey.
What I like about him most and find interesting is his age. Like China, he’s one of the few examples where the personification’s body itself has become old.
Characterization post on Turkey coming up tonight!
